R is one of the most widely used software for statistics and data science. In this course, the students will have the chance to become familiar with basic R objects, operations, visualizations tools and programming. The course will have in-class and online components. The online material (more information here: http://www.uta.fi/cast/events/Ronline.html) should be done before the first day of the course or between the two in-class days of the course. The second in-class day of the course will offer the chance to get a deeper knowledge about R and to analyze own data.
